The New Horizons of the Cohesion Policy in the European Union: The Challenge of the Danube Strategy

Author(s): / Language(s): English

The present volume consists of two parts. The contributions in the first part offer first of all a theoretical analysis and outline some perspectives for the functional macro-regions in the eu, while in the second part the papers are basically case studies in the sub-national regions concerned. This combination of the top-down and bottom-up approaches gives the specificity of this edited volume and it provides a big advantage, since the danube strategy – the danube Region strategy, with a usual abbreviation, dRs – can only be approached at the same time from “above” in the framework of the eu2020 general strategy and from “below” through the efforts of its constituent parts, i.e. the countries, sub-national regions and localities, including the capital cities.

Uwarunkowania rozwoju lokalnego na obszarach przygranicznych

Author(s): Sławomir Sitek / Language(s): Polish

The paper looks at the course of the process of local development in changing systemic and economic conditions in specific zones, namely border regions. Local development is one of the aspects of territorial development that is implemented at the municipal and administrative district level. It is expressed through favourable changes, the source of which are, in particular, local natural and material resources and the characteristics of the local community that are conducive to the development. In the result of these changes the needs of the residents are more fully addressed, and their welfare improved. It includesa number of factors relating to the social, economic and spatial sphere. What is a new determinant of the local development in border regions is the integration process causing the „erosion“ of the borders. This applies to intra-EU borders, because of the fact that at the same time on the external border a noticeable sealing process takes place, and this necessitates verification of theoretical concepts explaining the mechanisms of the development in these areas. The paper is aimed at the identification of the determinants of the local development of Polish border regions, with a particular focus on the role and function of the border as a factor modelling this process. The research problem consists in the identification of factors and barriers to the local development in the border regions, with the emphasis on the elementspointing to the specificity resulting from the neighbourhood of the border. The methodology of the paper is based on a compilation of quantitative methods, which have been supplemented with a range of qualitative information. The specificity of the conditions of the local development in the border regions has been tested in the three types of neighbourhood:• the border region of A type – between the countries of the so-called ‘the old’ EU and Poland, in this case represented by the Germany-Poland border (PL-DE)• the border region of B type – between the countries of the so-called ‘the new’ EU, represented by the border regions of Poland-the Czech Republic (PL-CZ), Poland-Slovakia (PL-SK) and Poland-Lithuania (LT-PL)• the border region of C type – that constitutes an external border of the EU, represented by the border regions of Poland-Belarus (PL-BY), Poland-Ukraine (PL-UA) and Poland-Russia (PL-RU).Accordingly, the area of the research comprised the municipalities and administrative districts immediately adjacent to the state border. The total number of the territorial units included in the study is 164 municipalities and 56 districts.In accordance with the aspects of local development, a comprehensive inspection of the theories of social, economic and spatial development was carried out, and subsequently the concepts whose assumptions would be adequate to the conditions observed in the border regions were sought amongst them. The assessment of the determinants in the individual border regions allowed establishing where the conditions are the most favourable for the development. Moreover, it had been assumed that together with an increasing distancefrom the border its influence decreases, and also that a greater number of border crossings positively stimulates the process of local development. In addition, the influence of the local government, Euro-regions and the EU programmes on the condition in the border regions was verified.The paper presents the change in the character of the border and the circumstances surrounding its formation, with particular emphasis on the period after 1989. It also comprises a parametric evaluation of the stage of the development of the border regions in the system of the municipalities and administrative districts, and the correlation between its condition and the existence of the border crossing and the type of border region.The participation of the border regions in the demographic, financial and economic potential of the country was diagnosed, along with the dynamics of the changes in this field in the years 1995–2015. In addition, the issue of macro-economic differences between the countries was discussed. The impact on the local development was also investigated on the basis of the level of trade and exchange, differences in prices, differences in the condition of labour and real estate markets. In the social sphere, the attention was paid to the multiculturalism of the border regions and the issues of social activity. What was emphasised was the importance of tourism and the role of EU programmes designed for the border regions.It was found out that the conditions for the development of the local Polish border regions are diverse, which results from the very character of the border. The overall assessment of the determinants of the development is positive. The actions of the state and the EU aimed at integration are supported with numerous measures focused on the cross-border cooperation. In the border regions, there are still favourable economic differences that allow obtainingbenefits of the exchange. It has been confirmed by a growing level of expenditure in the border regions and a greater number of travellers. Further development requires developing a common identity of the border regions originating from the common ground of the cultures and nations. The community of goals and further understanding is the basis of trust, which constitutes the foundation of social capital. More and more plentiful is the evidence that the inhabitants of these regions are beginning to see the border as an opportunity for development, not as a barrier to it. The contact between the sides of the border is also easier, which is the result of the reduction in its formal rigor and the development of technical infrastructure. The border region of A type is the best developed, whereas the rate of changes indicates that its advantages over the other border regions are decreasing. The most favourable conditions for local development in terms of economy prevail in the regions adjacent to the borders with Germany and Ukraine, while as for the social sphere – in the regions bordering with Slovakia and the Czech Republic, and slightly less favourable at the border with Lithuania. The worst situation (in terms of both of the aforementioned fields) was observed at the border with Russia and Belarus.

Stan i współczesne zmiany systemów lodowcowych południowego Spitsbergenu w świetle badań metodami radarowymi

Author(s): Mariusz Grabiec / Language(s): Polish

The book presents the interactions that take place in the glacial systems and defines the mechanisms that control these processes. The purpose of this book is to investigate how glacial systems react to changing climate.The conducted analysis applied a set of field studies from 2007—2014 carried out in southern Spitsbergen between van Keulenfjorden fiords in the North and Hornsund in the South. The widely applied radar sounding is an effective research method in the glaciated areas thanks to its noninvasiveness, mobility, wide depth range of the survey area constituting the glacial system, as well as simplicity in distinguishing the structures within the glacier due to their contrastive dielectric properties. The analysis focused on the processes undergoing in particular components of the glacial system (i.e., snow cover, firn, the interior of the glacier in various hydrothermal states, water drainage system) that constitute a complex interacting with the natural surroundings and is thus conducive to the formation of a glaciosystem.The research shows the glacial systems of Svalbard as responding gradually to the relatively fast environmental changes. Hence the view of the glaciers as indicators of such changes needs to be regarded with caution and due consideration of their delayed response time under a given climate scenario and the potential process that might continue even after the factor that caused the changes has already ceased.The book is addressed to all the individuals who study glacial processes and the reaction of glacial complexes in the Arctic to the environmental changes, and to experts who use geophysical surveys, predominantly radar systems in the glaciated areas. It will also be of interest to aficionados of Earth’s frigid zones.

A loosing combination for romanian cities? Shrinking population and urban sprawl

Author(s): Alina Băileşteanu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Urban development represents a key element of the sustainable economic development in all the countries. The cities through concentration of the people, services and business are driven forces for competitiveness of the countries. More than 70% of the EU population lives in urban areas, urban areas generate more than 67% of EU GDP, cities are territories that focuses most jobs, most economic and higher education institutions can be found in these areas which also provides access to services and trade. But also, in urban areas - unemployment, social segregation, environmental or mobility (congestion) are emphasized. According to the 2007 report of UNFPA, entitled "Urbanization, urban expansion potential", the phenomenon of urbanization will be the most important factor influencing development in the 21st century. Apparently the Romanian cities are facing similar problems as the Western European cities: decay of inner urban space and deterioration in the social, economic, political and physical substance of the city. In spite of the apparent similarity in the forms of manifestation of these phenomena, their substance is different.After emerging the communism era, Romania had to tackle and overcome all sorts of disparities and to reconnect to current practices and policies developed in Western European countries.

Reconsidering the suburbs in the context of expansive urbanization

Author(s): Oana-Diana CIUPERCA / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The article brings forward two main ideas: the living fact that urban sprawl is nowadays the most common reaction of hyper-urbanisation of the big cities and the lack of experience in the european space in how to deal with this phenomenon, in terms of people’s needs, the role that these satelite settlements receive in the urban system, and the dependency to the „mother city”. Nevertheless, Romanian cities have yet to find a solution for preventing the uncontrolable urban sprawl, which leads to economic and social gaps between these new areas and the main city’s. The reference suburb used for comparisson is Pantelimon Town, a small urban area, adiacent to Bucharest, and completely dependent of it’s range of services and labour market.

Evoluţia favelelor din Rio de Janeiro

Author(s): Roxana Pufu / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

The paper was developed to illustrate how problems arising with the process of urbanization that characterized the middle of the twentieth century, led to the emergence of new types of housing and urban landscape, favelas. Developing for over a century, this phenomenon spread throughout Latin America, creating new problems for the city of Rio de Janeiro which aspires to the status of global city and will be the host of two major international events: Football World Cup 2014 Olympic Summer Games 2016. City crisis caused by economic factors, extreme poverty and criminal practices developed within favelas led government and municipalities to launch projects for integrating these communities into the city, Brazil becoming a role model for other Latin countries.

Lviv and Łódź at the Turn of 20th Century. Structure of Economic Space

Author(s): Bartosz Bartosiewicz,Mykoła Habrel,Natalia Lysyak,Anna Hoblyk,Stanisław Kozłowski,Svitlana Shults,Iwona Pielesiak / Language(s): English

The attempt to make a comparative study of Lviv and Łódź in search of certain regularities seems at the first glimpse rather farfetched, because apparently there are rather few analogies between the city of Lviv with its long history and multifunctional tradition and the monofunctional, rather young, industrial city of Łódź. But deeper analysis shows that despite many differences in the course of the history of both cities, some common tendencies can be traced, such as dynamic demographic and spatial development in the second half of the 19th century based on introduction of railway transport, the building of socio-economic and spatial structures of these cities by multi-cultural local communities, and going through half-a-century period of centralized socialist economy after the Second World War. Lviv and Łódź regained political independence almost at the same time (1989 in Poland and 1991 in Ukraine) and entered the route of democratic development, undergoing political and socio-economic transformations during the last 20 years. As a result of these processes as well as the influence of globalization, today we can observe in Łódź and in Lviv similar problems and phenomena, influencing their spatial development and functional restructuring.

Wzorzec miejskiej przestrzeni publicznej w konfrontacji z podmiejską rzeczywistością. Przykład podwarszawskich suburbiów

Author(s): Dorota Mantey / Language(s): Polish

The author confronts suburban recreational spaces with the model of urban public space, which is founded on three values: diversity, accessibility and public control. The basis for this confrontation is formed by the results of a survey study, observations of the behaviours of the users of the space and an analysis of spatial policies of selected suburban municipalities of Warsaw. The functional value of recreational spaces is assessed by measuring their prosocial character. The research is accompanied by a reflection on the social concept of space, the contemporary theory of place and public space.

STO LAT WŁADZY LOKALNEJ na polskiej wsi 1918–2018

Author(s): Andrzej Piasecki,Arkadiusz Ptak / Language(s): Polish

Problematyka władzy lokalnej jest z natury rzeczy bardzo szeroka i podejmowana przez przedstawicieli różnych dyscyplin naukowych. Każda z nich koncentruje się na nieco innym aspekcie funkcjonowania władzy lokalnej. W niniejszej monografii, mającej charakter przede wszystkim politologiczny, podjęto próbę odpowiedzi na dwa zasadnicze pytania badawcze:1. Jakie społeczność wiejska miała polityczne i prawne możliwości udziału w wyłanianiu władz lokalnych oraz w zarządzaniu sprawami lokalnymi?2. Jaką rolę w tym poszerzaniu (lub ograniczaniu) możliwości partycypacji odgrywały zmieniające się podziały terytorialne obszarów wiejskich? [Ze wstępu]

TURYSTYKA NA OBSZARACH WYSPIARSKICH WOBEC ŚWIATOWEGO KRYZYSU GOSPODARCZEGO

Author(s): Katarzyna Podhorodecka / Language(s): Polish

Rozwój turystyki na małych obszarach wyspiarskich stał się motorem rozwoju gospodarczego. Sytuacja tych obszarów podczas światowego kryzysu gospodarczego była zróżnicowana. Niektóre z nich, mimo dekoniunktury na rynku turystycznym, odnotowały lepsze wyniki tego sektora niż pozostałe. W monografii wskazano uwarunkowania tego sukcesu, a także model reakcji destynacji turystycznej na kryzys ekonomiczny. Przedstawione wnioski mogą zostać wykorzystane w tworzeniu polityki turystycznej na obszarach zależnych gospodarczo od turystyki i w konsekwencji przyczynić się do zwiększania wpływów z tej dziedziny gospodarki. Monografia jest polecana przedstawicielom nauki, biznesu i administracji zajmującym się turystyką.Wyjaśniając zależności pomiędzy wybranymi zmiennymi determinującymi odporność na sytuacje kryzysowe w obszarze turystyki, Autorka wykorzystała wiele danych statystycznych dostępnych w międzynarodowych bazach, ukazujących nie tylko wielkość ruchu turystycznego, zatrudnienia w przemyśle turystycznym oraz wpływów z tytułu zagranicznej turystyki przyjazdowej, lecz także strukturę rynku turystycznego, stopień jego dywersyfikacji oraz uzależnienie od głównych rynków emisyjnych.Z recenzji dr hab.

Ewolucja. Twórcza moc selekcji

Author(s): Jerzy Dzik / Language(s): Polish

An instructive introduction to the theory of evolution and its applications in biology, physics, chemistry, geology and humanities. The author shows that evolution is a physical process, occurring in geological time dimension, describes how the Darwin’s theory of natural selection works in immunology, neurobiology, sociology as well as in certain aspects of culture and political institutions. He also shows the effects achieved through the action of selection in different areas of biological and social life. He discusses such problems as: the ambiguity of the term “theory of evolution”, the falsifiability of evolutionary hypotheses, connection between evolution and thermodynamics, the concept of reductionism, methodological background of phylogenetics, cladistics, evolutionary developmental biology and homeotic genes, as well as the cumulative nature of social and cultural evolution.

Bycie w terenie / Being out in the land / Estar en el terreno

Author(s): / Language(s): English,Polish,Spanish

You are warmly invited to think about rootedness through a book on the experience of place and being out in the land. We are heading towards the land led not so much by methodological determinations of the land as a category in ethnological research, but by philosophers’ creed where man is a localised being; moreover, what is human is extracted by means of being in a place which binds the orders of spacetime, of landscape, the orders locating us "here and now,” the domestic and rooting orders, but also those questioning our certainty about location, turning home into ruin. Place introduces into the domestic traces of the indescribable, the inscrutable, the indefinite. Place – materially, socially and spiritually capacious – focuses on the land as an area of the Earth, which unveils in man the sensation of enormity, the feeling of blending in and the will to co-create; but the land also becomes an area of our activity and, at the same time, a stage for nature/culture activity; the land is what is open, unveiled in a place, it cannot be ignored, it is extracted from humans during their response to the land, it exposes humans in their being in the land.

Autor skoncentrował swoją uwagę na relacjach między aktywnością administracji samorządowej, widzianej w perspektywie submiejskiej, metropolitalnej/aglomeracyjnej, państwowej i transnarodowej, a procesami urban governance z udziałem mieszkańców. (…)Interesująca jest twórcza próba nawiązania do koncepcji przeskalowania państwa Neila Brennera w odniesieniu do aktywności miejskiej administracji samorządowej polskich miast wojewódzkich (…).Walorem pracy jest przedstawienie „pozamiejskiej” interpretacji mechanizmów zaangażowania mieszkańców w lokalny proces decyzyjny w kontekście zadania wzmocnienia pozycji wspólnot samorządowych w strukturze państwa. (…)Jest to opracowanie dojrzałe metodologicznie i ważne w zakresie poczynionych ustaleń badawczych. prof. dr hab. Grzegorz Rydlewski, Uniwersytet Warszawski W dorobku piśmienniczym polskiej politologii jest niewiele prac podejmujących problematykę przeskalowania urban governance (…). Ksiażkę Kamila Glinki należy więc przyjąć z zainteresowaniem, tym bardziej że sposób konceptualizacji poszczególnych zagadnień jest nowoczesny i oparty na właściwych założeniach metodologicznych.Publikacja wpisuje się w coraz częściej podnoszone ostatnio postulaty upolitycznienia miast i próby odpowiedzi na pytania o miejsce miast we współczesnej przestrzeni politycznej.
